Muscat from Nairobi
3,607 km, about 5h 19m in the air. Every month scored for the weather at Muscat and for the holidays that crowd it out at both ends.
Affiliate links: we may earn a commission if you book through one, at no extra cost to you. It changes nothing above — the scores are computed from climate and fare data before any link is built.
Free, on Telegram. One tap — NBO is already chosen. We write
when a fare is genuinely below what that route normally costs, and
/stop ends it.
Public holidays at Nairobi move this destination's year too little to make it a different answer, so the Muscat page is the one of record. This one is kept for the distance and the flight it implies.
No fare history on NBO–MCT yet, so this ranking is climate and crowds only. The price column fills in as the scanner collects.

Crowds is a score out of 100 where higher is quieter. It counts public-holiday clusters in KE as well as at Muscat, which is why this table differs from the same one read from another country. A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. Crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.
The year in Muscat
No climate data is available for Muscat; therefore, I cannot provide a detailed seasonal profile.
Written by a language model from the climate figures above. The month-by-month table is measured — ten years of ERA5 readings and published holiday calendars — and where the two disagree, the table is the one to believe.
